Face is always oily?

0

(I tried posting a topic on the Teens group, but I my iPad wouldn’t allow me.)

My face is constantly oily. In fact, every time I pass a sink, I splash my face with water. My face seems to ‘regenerate’ it’s oil every 30 seconds or less. This is especially annoying since at school I can’t go to the bathroom every minute to freshen up. Also, my glasses always fall down the bridge of my nose because the oil makes it impossible for my glasses to get a firm hold. (My face is INCREDIBLY shiny at school.)

It’s a habit for me to wipe the oil off of my nose with the back of my hand (I know you shouldn’t touch your face…), and thats one of the reasons how I know my face produces so much oil. In fact, the back of my hand has these tiny little bumps- mini pimples. The hand pimples only show up at school because at home I just splash my face with some water.

I absolutely dislike washing my face with cleansers, because I’ve tried a couple of kinds already and they all make my face dry and tight. Patches of skin become so dry that they peel off (tends to be the patches around pimples), and it’s slightly uncomfortable to make facial expressions for a while.

I’ve tried Simple refreshing facial wash gel, Neutrogenia fragrance-free facial cleansing bar, and Dove facial cream. I need something inexpensive that’ll work.

Thanks!

i would say go to the doctors and ask to be prescribed something. If you don't want to do that, go to a beauty stand at a department store and see whether they can recommend a few products. x
